The obligatory greetings post

Post Reply New Topic

Hello fellow aspies. My name is Emily. I am a whimsical, out-of-this-orbit college student from the Chicago area. I first suspected I was an aspie after discussing the possibility with my family. After my mother confessed she was wary of my arm flapping, jaw-clenching, aloof attitude toward others, and strange logic, I was relived to know I wasn't alone. So I ended up here.

I am an English major with specific aspirations. I am greatly appreciative of a well-composed piece of literature and I love finding beauty in the details of English grammar and composition. I am an aspiring freelance editor and writer who enjoys opportunities to put my skills into action. In terms of hobbies/interests, my "obsessions" would be Japanese street fashions, sustainable living, gardening, poetry, and photography.

I suspect I'll fit in just fine.

much welcome! I am new as well, best thing is to just jump in. It is great that your parents are involved and understanding! I was beginning to wonder if I was a freak even among Aspies as I do not have any bent towards math, but instead writing and reading, which is apparantly rare. I do LOVE science and history and have some rather odd view points, but I seem to have a mental block for any kind of higher math, which is a darn shame because otherwise I could have been a darm Aspie cliche and went into engineering like I was meant to... So thanks again for being an englishy person!

Welkome to WP
